The tea ball, the perfect infuser for tasty cups
In the world of tea, the infuser or "tea ball" takes the form of a reusable filter dedicated to the preparation of loose teas and infusions. It allows you to prepare individual cups to enjoy throughout the day. A removable compartment encloses the tea leaves, similar to tea bags or "infusettes". This allows the plants to flourish fully and freely in the hot water to better reveal their aromas when tasted.
Tea brewed using a tea ball generally offers a more homogeneous infusion than tea bags, with optimal diffusion of the plant's compounds and associated ingredients: flowers, fruits, etc. It is also part of a waste reduction approach, which is why many tea drinkers prefer loose tea and tea balls for their daily consumption.
At Betjeman & Barton, each infuser is crafted from porcelain or stainless steel, robust materials suitable for long-lasting use. Our tea infusers come in a variety of shapes to suit every taste, whether you're looking for a purely functional item or a stylish accessory.

How to use your tea ball?
The perfect combination of practicality and taste, the tea ball helps you precisely control the time and intensity of your infusion. To do this, place the tea of your choice in the infuser, then immerse the accessory in hot water according to the recommended infusion time and your personal preferences. The perforated holes or mesh of the tea ball then allow the aromas of the tea to diffuse into the water.
To ensure proper leaf development during infusion, always follow the correct number of scoops for your infuser size. When the tea is ready, remove the tea ball from your cup or teapot. The brewed tea can be easily removed from the container after infusion, making cleaning simple and easy.
Fill, dip, remove: the tea ball is easy to use every day, with just three simple steps. Make it your new ally for discovering new flavors or drinking your favorite tea in any situation.
Pair your Betjeman & Barton infuser with one of the premium teas or infusions from our catalog to experience a preparation and tasting experience that meets your expectations.
